[Cobo] Wind Power

[Bosserman, David]

David,

OG&E tells us we are the largest single purchaser of their wind power.
Like Tom, we want more and cannot get it.  They tell us they are
installing more farms and more will be available in the future, but a
100% wind power goal may not be achievable in the near term.

Our electric provider blends all power sources gas, coal and wind into a
one rate structure.  Despite having one of the largest wind energy farms
in the state SWOSU doesn't have the option to purchase 100% wind
generated power!

Business Officers,

The University of Central Oklahoma has recently committed to purchase
100% of our electrical usage from wind power generation.  Due to the
current fuel cost surcharges, the cost of wind power generated
electricity is about
$.01 per Kwh less than conventional fossil fuel generated electricity.
We were wondering if there are any other Colleges or Universities in
Oklahoma that are purchasing significant amounts of electricity through
wind power generation, or are considering this option.

Thank you for your time.
